yes exactly, if we had USED 400,000 troops as suggested by Powell and the army, I wouldve supported it because we wouldve established security and prevented al-qaeda from inflitrating the country. If they had appleid a marshall plan scenario to Iraq, I wouldve been all for it, in fact condoleeza had a great strategy that was ignored by Rumsfeld. It's not too late now, in fact i advocate putting in more troops now to rebuild the country even further since they now have a working democracy.
good im glad we agree there. the point is, using noams logic, this was all wrong. that is why i dont like chomsky. he sees any continuation of this war as even more criminal. noam is good on a lot, not here..not on iraq and afghanistan. he complains afghanistan is illegitimate because we never declared overthrowing the taliban a war aim... even if we had, i doubt he would have cared. all is imperialism to him. i dont have time for noam on foreign policy.
You want the war to be sustained? What the fuck, why? The Afghans predominately want a withdrawal with a focus on diplomacy, ie: negotiations with the Taliban.
Stupid Americans imposing their values on another society without taking the peoples' views and beliefs into consideration -_-
yes i am for that... i hate cheney and rumsfeld and saddam. im not fond of bush either, but im talking about policies...and the broad policy of overthrowing saddam is not what people like noam make it out to be. i dont think noam would agree that the ousting of saddam was a good or just thing. i guess we disagree...i think correcting our mistakes is a good thing.
